WMWH Chapter 29

When we got home, Fang Xiānsheng was still wiping tears.

I ended up losing my temper when he cried, and I had to console him with half of my face that had been accidentally swollen by him. It wasn’t until I entered that I realized that the house was also in a mess, with the shoe cabinet still in the middle of the path, cleaning tools still on the ground, and the broken computer screens in the room that hadn’t been cleaned up.

I sighed and said to Fang Xiānsheng, “You stand outside and cry for a while. Wait until I tidy up the house before you come in.”

“No,” Fang Xiānsheng held my hand and said with sobs, “I, I’ll clean it up.”

 Then he cleaned things up by himself while crying.

I was completely at my wit’s end, and just as I was about to take some Yunnan Baiyao and wipe it on my face, my phone rang. It was Father Fang and he asked me: “Li Sheng, how is Fang Fang?”

I glanced at Fang Xiānsheng and said with a headache, “He’s still crying. No matter how I try to persuade him, it doesn’t work.”

“That’s okay. I’ve already brought Fang Fang’s attending physician, we will arrive in about 10 minutes,” Father Fang said.

“Okay, then Fang Fang and I will wait for you at home.”

I hung up the phone, squeezed a little Yunnan Baiyao and applied it evenly on my cheeks. The room was quiet, and I felt a little strange, so I called out “Fang Fang”.

Fang Xiānsheng did not reply to me.

I was a little flustered, so I ran into the studio and saw and I almost had a heart attack – Fang Xiānsheng was lying still on his back on the ground. If I hadn’t seen his eyes still dripping with tears, I might have really burst into tears.

“What are you doing?” I squatted down and asked him, “What’s wrong with you?”

Fang Xiānsheng blinked his eyes, tears flowing down like torrential rain, and his long eyelashes were wet like a butterfly’s wings wetted by rain.

“Fang Fang feels sad.” He pointed to his chest.

I was a little anxious, thinking he was injured there, so I quickly unbuttoned his shirt to check, gently pressed his chest, and asked, “Is this here?”

“Yes…”Fang Xiānsheng nodded.

I thought he suffered internal injuries, so I held his hand and said, “Get up quickly and I’ll take you to the hospital.”

“Fang Fang doesn’t want to go to the hospital,” Fang Xiānsheng turned sideway and continued crying: “Fang Fang’s heart hurts so much.”

“If you feel hurt, just get up and go to the hospital!” I shook his body, not daring to use too much force, and urged, “Get up quickly! I’ll take you to the hospital for a check-up.” But no matter how I tried to persuade Fang Xiānsheng, he just lay on the ground and didn’t get up.

I felt like I was going to be angry with him again. Fortunately, the doorbell rang at this time, and Father Fang and the doctor finally came. I almost cried with joy and hurriedly said to them: “Fang Fang said that his heart hurts but he kept lying on the ground and refused to get up. Is there anything you can do?”

“It’s okay, Li Sheng, don’t be nervous, let the doctor check Fang Fang first,” Fang’s father said, “Let’s go out and wait.”

“Doctor, is Fang Fang okay?” I asked worriedly before leaving.

“It’s okay. He just has a habit of pretending to be dead. Just give him a beating.” The doctor said with a smile.

I looked at him with wide eyes and thought, was this man really a doctor?

“Haha, I’m kidding you. Did you really believe it?” The doctor pushed me and said, “Go out and come back in an hour.” After that, he closed the door.

“It’s okay, Li Sheng. Mr. Qin has taken care of Fang Fang for many years. He has experience,” Father Fang said, “Come here, I have something to tell you.”

I felt a little relieved, so I walked over and sat down on the sofa. When I saw Father Fang’s serious expression, I felt a little nervous.

“Li Sheng, we are a family now. Just because we are a family, I will tell you some things directly. I hope you won’t mind.” I nodded my head like a little chicken pecking at rice and said, “Dad, tell me, I won’t mind.”

Father Fang stood up from the sofa and said sincerely: “First of all, I want to apologize to you on behalf of Fang Fang’s mother and Fang Fang. They went to an office to investigate your personal affairs without your consent. Regardless of their starting point or any important reason, we cannot deny that this behaviour itself is wrong. At this point, I must solemnly apologize to you.” Father Fang said, bowing deeply to me.

I jumped up from the sofa, hurriedly asked Father Fang to sit back, and said hurriedly: “Dad, don’t be like this, it’s not a big deal, just let it go. It’s just that I understand that Mother Fang entrusted the firm to investigate, but you said Fang Fang also found someone to investigate me?”

“That’s right, because when Fang Fang’s mother looked for xx Service Firm, it seemed to be discovered by Fang Fang accidentally, so he followed suit and entrusted that firm to check on you.”

I was speechless, thinking that this was really like Fang Xiānsheng’s style.

“After all, Fang Fang’s mother did something wrong,” Father Fang sighed and said, “Fang Fang was obsessed with you when he first saw you. His mother was worried, so she asked someone to investigate your background.”

“To tell you that, I also have somewhat of a part in this matter,” Father Fang touched his nose sheepishly and said, “Because that firm was opened by an old friend of mine, and I also acquiesced when Fang Fang’s mother investigated you. So I am also responsible, and I am really sorry.”

I quickly interrupted Father Fang and said, “Dad, you don’t have to apologize. If it were me, I might do the same thing. After all, Fang Fang is still like a child.”

“No, Li Sheng, Fang Fang is not a child anymore,” Father Fang shook his head and said, “If Fang Fang had accidentally beaten Luo Bin to death today, even if I were his father, I would have never forgiven him. But of course, I wouldn’t have been able to forgive myself either. This type of accident has always been at fault of not being raised by a good father.”

My heart was shaken when I heard this, and had serious respect for Father Fang at that time.

“Although I am Fang Fang’s father when Fang Fang was growing up, his mother stayed with him most of the time, so it was inevitable that she would be too doting on him. Sometimes, there are some inappropriate ways to educate Fang Fang. Just like this time when Fang Fang’s mother took you to the hospital for treatment, I thought it was wrong to hide it from Fang Fang. Although Fang Fang likes to think wildly, as long as you explain it to him well, I believe he can understand it. “

My face was full of shame when Father Fang said that. I lowered my head and said, “Dad, I’m sorry. I really didn’t consider this.”

“Li Sheng, you don’t need to apologize. Your and Fang Fang’s mother’s concerns on this matter are reasonable. But Li Sheng, I must remind you that in Fang Fang’s mother’s eyes, Fang Fang can be a person who will never grow up like an adult, but you can’t treat Fang Fang like a child.”

“Because you are Fang Fang’s other half, Li Sheng. In terms of this relationship, the two of you have equal status. You can’t be like Fang Fang’s mother and always think about helping Fang Fang make decisions. This is actually unfair to the other party because he is no longer a child. You don’t know how much he has put in to be with you. He really does his best to take care of you, trying his best to not be a burden on you.”

“So Li Sheng, don’t treat Fang Fang like a child and don’t keep everything to yourself. The meaning of marriage lies in mutual trust and support. One-sided dependence and concealment will only cause harm to each other. Since you chose Fang Fang at the beginning, then you must believe in your own vision, and you must also believe in Fang Fang, he is not a burden, but a person who can truly accompany you throughout your life.”

I couldn’t help but cover my face and let tears seep out from the seams of my hands.

“Li Sheng, that’s all I want to say. You have always been a smart and considerate child. I believe you will figure it out.” Father Fang stood up and patted my shoulder before leaving.

I sat alone on the sofa and couldn’t stop crying. The overwhelming guilt and sadness completely overwhelmed me. I finally understood how Fang Xiānsheng felt when he was lying on the ground.

Doctor Qin said that Fang Xiānsheng was too stimulated today and would cry his eyes out if he kept remembering today’s events, so he directly hypnotized Fang Xiānsheng and asked him to forget everything today and treat it as if it was a dream.

I looked at him in shock, what kind of operation was this?!

Father Fang said: “It’s okay. This is normal. It will be fine when Fang Fang wakes up. Lao Qin, let’s go.”

Doctor Qin said angrily: “Old Fang, this is not interesting enough. I skipped work at the hospital to help you take care of your son. Now that your son is well, you let me go without even giving me a glass of water. Are you still a brother? Do you still have a conscience?”

 have a confused expression on my face. I wonder if Fang Xiānsheng’s problem of speaking without punctuation was learned from him?

“How is that possible? I’m going to treat you to a big meal tonight! Let’s go!” Father Fang said

“That’s much like it,” Dr. Qin said with a smile. He handed me a business card and said, “This is my contact information. If Fang Fang has any problems, you can contact me at any time.”

I took the business card and said sincerely: “Thank you, doctor.”

Father Fang waved his hand at me and said, “Li Sheng, don’t bother with it. After working hard all day, eat something and go rest. You don’t have to worry about Luo Bin. Fang’s mother and I will solve it.”

I nodded, closed the door and went in to see Fang Xiānsheng. He slept soundly and his face looked peaceful. I walked over and bent down to give him a gentle goodnight kiss. Just like every time he secretly kissed me while I was sleeping.

Fang Xiānsheng slept until the next morning before waking up. I didn’t sleep deeply, I woke up as soon as he moved.

He looked at me blankly, suddenly widened his eyes and asked, “Wife, what’s wrong with your face?”

I touched my cheekbone, which still hurt a little, and said, “I accidentally knocked on the door when I came back last night.”

Fang Xiānsheng came over and touched my face gently, and said distressedly: “Which door is it? I will replace it today.”

“Hey, I was careless. Why did it matter which door it was?” I said and got out of bed and asked him: “Are you hungry or not? I’ll give you some food below.”

Eh, why did this sentence sound so bad?

Before I had time to think about it, Fang Xiānsheng’s stomach growled. He touched his stomach blankly and said, “It’s empty inside.”

I couldn’t help but laugh, thinking that it would be strange if your stomach was full after eating only one meal since yesterday.

“Okay, I’ll cook some noodles for you, and you can eat them after you wash up,” I said.

“Okay.” Fang Xiānsheng responded obediently and went into the bathroom.

He didn’t even drink the pork rib soup that I cooked for Fang Xiānsheng yesterday, but after heating it up I used it as soup today.

To be honest, I was on tenterhooks for most of the day yesterday and I didn’t eat much. I was also very hungry, so I accidentally made a “cī liū“¹ This is an onomatopoeia for sucking saliva. sound while eating noodles.

Fang Xiānsheng looked at me blankly, then lowered his head and took a big sip.

There were a lot of slurping sounds as we ate the noodles, and in the end, we both laughed.

Yesterday’s dark clouds finally cleared away one by one.
